Cisco GSR16/320-SFC: 320 Gbps switch fabric card (73-4234-06) for the Cisco 12416 GSR router.

The Cisco GSR16/320-SFC is a 320 Gbps Switch Fabric Card, Cisco part number 73-4234-06, built for the 12416 chassis in the Cisco 12000 Series Gigabit Switch Router (GSR) family. The 12416 is a 16-slot carrier-class router used by service providers for core and edge IP/MPLS routing, and its switch fabric cards form the backplane interconnect that moves traffic between line cards; multiple SFCs run in parallel across the chassis for capacity and redundancy, so a single card failing degrades fabric bandwidth rather than taking the router down outright. The 320 Gbps fabric generation pairs with the 12416’s Performance Route Processors and higher-density line cards, and is not interchangeable with the smaller-capacity SFCs used on earlier 12000 Series chassis. The 12000 Series GSR remains in service in some legacy core and edge networks, where a fabric card of this type is the kind of spare kept on hand for a same-day swap. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) stocks Cisco components to support ongoing network maintenance.
